branch is an absolute mess
branch is an absolute mess, states they have 20 things in stock online yet theres nothing on the shelves. lewis, willy and tom are outstanding but theres always one member of the team thats lets it down. "assistant manager" has THE worst attitude going and they way he treats/speaks to people is absolutely disgusting. ask one simple question and he looks at you as if you're stupid. treats his staff like they belong on the bottom of his shoe and he calls his staff members horrible names which i wont repeat on here! every other CEF is brilliant with friendly and helpful staff! i would avoid CEF sighthill unless you want to be treated like your an idiot!
